Recap / Tuca And Bertie S 3 E 9 Somebirdys Getting Married

Go To

Speckle's sister Dottie has her wedding. Bertie worries she's making Speckle's life worse after meeting a group of his exes, and Tuca confronts her old relationships.


Tropes

  • Bait-and-Switch: For Dottie's wedding, "cue the doves" means the all dove band.
  • Break His Heart to Save Him: Discussed. Speckle's depression is getting worse, his exes tell Bertie that after their breakups with Speckle he's always gone on to better things. Bertie contemplates this, thinking he’ll be better off. Speckle tells her that this just happens with him and that he’ll eventually be back to normal.
  • Cargo Ship: In-Universe, one of Speckle's exes, Partridgina, cheated on him with one of Speckle's buildings. She even had brick children with it.
  • Furry Reminder: Instead of a bouquet toss, there's a lizard toss, with the bird guests very competitive about a chance at that lizard meat.
  • Last Het Romance: Lou and Ratface both realized they were lesbians after leaving Speckle.
  • Not Hyperbole: When Bertie tells Tuca that she saw Speckle eating an entire pack of frozen hot dogs, it then cuts to a flashback of him eating wieners literally encased in ice.
  • Took a Level in Kindness: Kara has become a far better partner than before after getting therapy.
  • Wedding Episode: The episode takes place at the wedding of Speckle's sister, Dottie.
  • You Never Did That for Me: Tuca is surprised to learn from Kara's new girlfriend that she managed to break away from her toxic behavior and seek therapy to improve herself. The look on Tuca's face shows she's hurt to learn this happened after Kara not only ghosted her, but abandoned her during a flood.
